Sun, 18 Mar 2018 01:00:00 EST
Session 208 - DnD 5e The Zutain Campaign progresses another step as our party of adventurers findthemselves in the royal court of the Chabba and have an audience with THE KING. Anim was more awake this time, and it may sound as if he's squeezing his nose shut, but rest assured he was simply congested. Also . . . While it's on my mind . . . You'll find the term DnD used in most of these episode descriptions instead of D ampersand D. It would be preferable to use the ampersand, but it simply BEGS iTunes to zero in on it and treat it as some kind of code abberation which it uses to reject your entire RSS feed. I know there is a special character that can be used in place of the ampersand, but I'm not going to experiment until I break everything again. Thank you for enduring this story. :) .

According the The Great Scholarly Wizard Gary of Pequanic - GODS-TOASTING is an annual Holiday Celebrated on the Island Nation of Quincunx, in the southern hemisphere of Zutain. Legend has it that Quincunx was very difficult to farm for the first settlers. And when a Cherry Orchard finally yielded a bountiful crop, the planters all gathered and lifted their glasses in a toast to the gods for helping, or at least allowing it to happen. The tradition was carried over each year... starting with a celebration dinner and a single Toast to whatever god any individual kept faith in. Over a hundred years it became a day of nearly continuous inebriation. Cultural variations of this celebration have worked their way in, and the introduction of Gifts being exchanged on the date became very popular. Also, the practice evolved of paying a small charitable fee to Arcane Practitioners with expertise in weather manipulation. They being called upon to cover as much of Quincunx with snow as possible thus giving both town and wild lands at least a single day of clean and pure. It is universally agreed among all temples and faiths that GodsToasting is a Time for Aiding light against the dark, Meting out Justice against the wicked, Helping others in time of need, and restoring as much balance as possible to the world. Glug, glug, glug. . . . .merry godzzztoassztinnkk Nikki plays Argante, a Human Bard. Trilobite plays Rhogar, a Dragonborn Ranger.

Session 128 - 2013 Christmas Spesh!
Wed, 25 Dec 2013 01:00:00 EST
A Gutter Skypes Christmas Spesh! We were all ready to record a 'SPECIAL', but it got curr-tailed...rim shot...You'll get the jest if you're kind enough to listen. TOON did not actually take place, but we did get to listener feedback and much Holiday cheeriness and jibber jabber. That's the first half.. the second half is a "LIVE" and as-it-happened first session of the creation of the FIAS-CON playset. That was recorded way back in August before Dragon Con! So please have a restful and stress-free Holiday and take small bites of this great big table full of talking!
Session 127 - Playtest of our FiasCon Playset With Guests from The Big Red Couch!
Sun, 08 Dec 2013 01:00:00 EST
All the hints were true! The Gutter Skypes spent two or three sessions cobbling together a FIASCO playset and we're calling it "FiasCon!" unless we think of something better or until someone tells us to stop. The Grand overall theme of the Playset is the Science Fiction-Fantasy-Gaming-Comics-Fan Convention experience and all the mayhem that can be placed in such a setting. Filling in all the possibilities in the various categories was a challenging and entertaining experience all by itself, but with the chassis welded and the engine loosely wired up front . . we decided to slap some wheels on it and see if it would roll for a while. Play Test Time! And to add fuel for fun and ramp up the creativity we were lucky enough to have two members of "The Big Red Couch" as our guests! Tonya and Kevin joined us to help kick the tires on this baby and check the handling. In my opinion...to borrow from Hunter Thompson...this playset "corners like a Lotus." But I'm biased. And As Mister K pointed out... More testing is always a good thing. Listen in and let us know what you think. It won't be long before we've got a splash page, Elevator pitch and all the missing parts filled in so Everybody who wants to can give it a try! Mark Kinney Played 'Chet Mannly' and Game Mastered ( Yes... it's true FIASCO isn't supposed to require a GM . . but Mister K has been MORE than patient with our little delinquent, "rules challenged" crew and he keeps us on course and within the framework of the game. My aim for the next FIASCO we play is to learn the rules well enough myself so that Mark can relax too and just have a good time playing.) Tonya Played Jillian Fish, Nikki Played Jemmy McDermitt, Kevin Played Rachel Hensley, Andros played Ron Wilco and anim5 hammed it up as NPC's along the way. Grab hold of your camera, bottled water, backpack, Four-Day-Pass and Granola bars . . and press PLAY!

We talked about stuff ranging from Gilbert and Sulivan to Disneyland Improvisation to Dragon Con Event lists to Violent Vampire series . . just a laid back gabfest where you don't have to be a fly on the wall . . 'cause it's all recorded and ready for you to download! Hope it entertains or at least fills three hours for you without Ahn-wee!
Sun, 15 Sep 2013 01:00:00 EST
The Gutter Skypes shoot the breeze ( and score a direct hit ). Arguably this is a Gaming-Free episode, but we DO spend some time filling in a 5 x 12 table with character names, embodiments, weapons, locations and Prized treasures from every corner of the imagination. Not so much a game as a mental exercise that thousands in the gaming world have done before us. Still great fun mixed in among the pop culture gab and catching up in a relaxed get-together. Edison Force Will return in time, but for now . . it's table filling, a bit of listener email and us Talkin'. Hope it passes some pleasant hours for all!

And Second . . . Anim5 was not present for a Gutter Skypes Episode! Download and Find out Why!! PLEASE NOTE: A Sony Software Video Editor demo that I downloaded and ran, crippled and UN-REGISTERED my six-year-old and fully paid for "Sound Forge 8" editing package. This episode was therefore edited using Audacity and thus has fewer bells and whistles than normal, and a rather LARGE download size. My apologies go to you . . and my enthusiastic contempt goes to SONY Corp. for "protecting" its product from paying customers. - anim5
